Pam Dawber hasn't had an acting credit to her name in 14 years, but she's returning to TV for Mork -- er, Robin Williams. The actress is confirmed to make an appearance on an upcoming episode of Williams' new CBS comedy, "The Crazy Ones."

Williams, who hadn't been a TV regular for more than 30 years following "Mork & Mindy," is joined on "The Crazy Ones" by "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Bill Cosby is coming back to TV with another family-friendly sitcom. NBC confirmed on January 22 that the 76-year-old is slated to play the patriarch of a multigenerational family.

Michael J. Fox returned in 2013 to NBC, the network that first made him famous with "Family Ties," for "The Michael J. Fox Show."

Years after he found fame on "Will & Grace," Sean Hayes is back on NBC with "Sean Saves the World."

Ben Savage is back -- this time as a dad -- in "Girl Meets World," a reboot of his "Boy Meets World" series. Also appearing on the new series is ...

... Danielle Fishel, who reprises her character of Topanga and is now the wife of Savage's character.

The 62-year-old Williams is set to reunite with his former co-star on his CBS comedy, "The Crazy Ones." According to the network, Dawber will guest star in an upcoming episode this season. On Instagram, Williams shared the happy news with a photo from their former show:

Williams and Dawber, also 62, portrayed an out-of-this-world odd couple on "Mork & Mindy" from 1978 to 1982. Williams was Mork, the alien curious about life on Earth, and Dawber was Mindy, the human woman he eventually would marry.

It's been a while since we've seen Dawber on TV -- her last credited acting role was in 2000 -- and even longer since we've seen her and Williams together again. In "The Crazy Ones" episode, Dawber will portray an author who goes on a date with Williams' character after his belief in love falters.

"It will be a joy to work with her again," Williams told CBS. "It's a dream come true."
